Lyrics

BG:
Olivia

INTRO:
You took
Olivia
Olivia
away from me

VERSE:
I was like a dove
resting
right outside your window

I comfort you with love
Through songs
You were my only true one

There must be something wrong, Dear
I haven’t seen a smile on your face in over a year

Now blackbirds sing along
They sing the songs that mourning doves sing
when you’re gone

PRECHORUS:
when you’re gone
when you’re gone

CHORUS:
love, I don’t want to sing you this song
When you’re gone
When you’re gone

VERSE 2:
I’m catching all the worms
In the cemetery

I hope I’ll find your heart
The one that’s buried
below is where we all go

This dove has lost his love, you know

so now, I fly around
and visit your window sill
I miss the way you were
I’d greet you every morning
we’d sing our lovely songs
we’d shout the harmonies
it rang through neighborhoods
now we can’t sing our song
no, now that you’re gone

BRIDGE:
I won’t want to sing
to you, anymore
I just want you back with me
I don’t want to sing the song again
I just want you back with me
I don’t want to sing…

CHORUS:
I don’t want to sing…
I don’t want to sing…
I don’t want to sing…

No I don’t want to sing
Not when you’re gone
Not when you’re not here
Not when you’re gone
Not when you’re not around to hear

Olivia, I want you to know that
I cannot sing for you
Olivia, I need you to know that
I cannot sing for you
Olivia, Olivia, Olivia, I know
Olivia, Olivia, Olivia!
